22For a seruant when he reigneth, and a foole when he is filled with meate,
23For the hatefull woman, when she is married, and for a handmaid that is heire to her mistres.
24These be foure small things in the earth, yet they are wise and full of wisedome:
25The pismires a people not strong, yet prepare they their meate in sommer:
26The conies a people not mightie, yet make their houses in the rocke:
27The grashopper hath no King, yet goe they forth all by bandes:
28The spider taketh holde with her handes, and is in Kings palaces.
29There be three thinges that order well their going: yea, foure are comely in going,
30A lyon which is strong among beastes, and turneth not at the sight of any:
31A lusty grayhound, and a goate, and a King against whom there is no rising vp.
32If thou hast bene foolish in lifting thy selfe vp, and if thou hast thought wickedly, lay thine hand vpon thy mouth.
33When one churneth milke, he bringeth foorth butter: and he that wringeth his nose, causeth blood to come out: so he that forceth wrath, bringeth foorth strife.
